About us
Your trusted digital parter for positive impact.
We lever technology to help purpose driven organisations maximise the positive impact they have on society.
A heartburst is the spark of passion that ignites a movement. The good work of our clients can typically be traced back to an individual or group of people who experienced a heartburst for a particular cause. When that spark ignites a flame, it spreads to establish an organisation that can multiply positive impact exponentially.
Our vision at Heartburst is to fan that flame through excellence in digital design and technology. We empower our clients to focus on the important work they do, by providing expertise and craftsmanship as a digital partner.
